Only to be stuck behind 2 semis where one is going 70 in the right lane and the other is going 70.0000001 in the left lane

You knew there was nowhere to go. That's why you didn't do it.

Road games

They're jawing with each other on the CB about the little bitch in the 4 wheeler.

If you're from MS, then you don't know real traffic. Western side of I-610 in Houston near galleria, post oak. I've never had 1 single drive in 7 years where I didn't have to go below 5 mph. Every single time I've had to go below 5 mph for a large portion of it.

True, but at least you're moving. Unlike the Basin Bridge, MS River Bridge, Spillway Bridge etc where you just get stuck with nowhere to go.

If they’re doing 70 then I’m okay with it.

Damn. You got some sort of NASA level speed indicator to be that precise.

The one in the left lane, with a quarter load is going the same speed as the one in the right lane with a full load. Just about that 5 mile mark when he’s gaining and can ALMOST merge, you come to the downhill stretch where the one in the right lane that’s heavier gains downhill momentum and begins to overtake the one in the left lane. You jump behind him only to be met with the next uphill climb where he loses steam, and the back and forth continues for the next 5 miles.

Semi driver in the left lane deserves the electric chair. This is why we can’t have nice things.

On the interstate, wherever you find slow backed up traffic, you will ALWAYS find a trucker going slow in the left lane leading the way.

Im on the interstate a lot. I’ve come to the conclusion that many drivers don’t deserve a drivers license. Many must be stoned cuz of the stupid shite I see. 18 wheeler dick heads and Texas drivers are about to make me go postal :). I may need help lmao!

Agree and my last trip to new Iberia. Never seen so many cars just cruising the left lane on 49. Absurd! Passed so many people with the right lane.

We should adopt the German model. Over there you have to demonstrate you can actually drive and negotiate traffic to get a license. Of course over here that would be sexist or racist or something
